I like her. People shit on her because she’s too earnest and tries too hard, but she fucking hustles and really does want people to like her.

It would be an almost impossible line to walk without coming across as ungrateful I imagine

Exactly, a different matter, but I loved that Hillary was proud that she worked hard and prepared for things. Working and trying hard is NOT a bad thing. Her, paraphrasing from memory, “ Donald wanted me to take a drug test before the last debate. I should be flattered that he thought I was on performance enhancing…

I wish she had just spoken honestly about what she was feeling. Maybe she didn’t understand it herself yet. But I think it would have gone over better. Or not. The world loves to tear down successful young women. And successful old women. And unsuccessful young/old women.

Nah. She just said that a TV movie wasn’t the contract she entered into and she doesn’t want to be forced into doing it when that wasn’t the agreement. TV movies have different schedules and requirements so she’s essentially taking control of her career. It’s weird that people would bitch at her for that. It’s pretty…

Spent a semester trying to help grad students trying to do this, so immediately jumped to their methodology. It’s maddengly vague and seems kinda problematic because it appears to be based solely on appearance: (though it kinda has to be ‘cause good data on this is bascally impossible to come by)

Yep, I’ve gotten old enough that I’ve begun to forget the names of people who were VERY important to my life, albeit for a short time. If I had any artifacts from them, they sure would have helped me remember who they were! I changed dorms every year in college, then changed apartments every year after that for a…

Can someone please explain to me why many states are totally cool with Stand Your Ground laws/using deadly force to “prevent death or great bodily harm” but this little girl faces life in prison for shooting someone who repeatedly threatened to kill his entire family with that very gun?

ugh MADDY, STOP BEING SO GLIB ABOUT SOMEONE AS IMPORTANT AS LORELAI II. Lorelai is selfish, but she was a good mom. She was emotionally stunted from having a baby at 16 and feeling alone ($$/privilege aside-emily and richard did not learn to respect her decisions until like, s7e18, and Lorelai did not grow up enough…

My issues with makeup: it is expensive, that even the ‘lightest’ of makeups still feel heavy, that my wearing it/not wearing it is perceived to be reflective of my self esteem, the sheer range of types of makeups-not just foundations, but powders, concealers, blush, highlighters, lip color, liners, mascara, etc and…

I think the point here is that if it is a genuine moment to normalize all faces (including the ones with acne, with sunspots and splotchy ness and dry skin), then these particularly blessed celebrities are not it because they have lovely faces that look like a lot of people’s post make up. I think it would be a lot…

It’s admirable that these women are going make-up less. However, I have to express, Alicia Keys does annoy me with her crusade. She has flawless skin; the only thing I didn’t know about her was that she has freckles... Oooo, ahhh!

Kim K is wearing more makeup in that picture than I’ve ever worn at one time in my whole life. Like by a lot.

The “no makeup” look is fine, but it’s not a “look” nor is it a movement. It’s just your face.

I’m going to bet on this trend lasting for all of two selfies. Women who aren’t photographed for a living will continue to wear or not wear makeup as they always did, and stars will continue to do spend a ton of time making sure they look perfect in pictures.

For real. I don’t get the Natalie Portman hate. Is it because she hooked up with her ballerina husband when he was in another relationship? Because that seems like his bad. Or is it because she didn’t do all her own dancing in Black Swan? Good, because that would have looked terrible. I like her. No beef from me.

Hahaha... was thinking the same thing. Jackie, though, had his number and had her own agenda, I think. She was about her kids and her reputation and while the brain splattering bit must have been awful I think the lead up to it showed that Jackie would have divorced him eventually anyway. There’s a great interview…

Once there was a king whose wife had died, and he decided to marry his daughter, who was her only equal in grace and beauty.

What would happen if a woman wore... flats?!?! Would the world implode?

the closest thing i can compare it to is when you’re comfortable going makeup free around your significant other but its MUCH more intimate then that. Our natural hair is something deeply personal to us.
